ABSTRACT

Developing complex systems like rail signaling involves not only understanding standard requirements but also considering stakeholder interests in manufacturing, design, and deployment. Rail signaling systems provide speed and movement instructions to drivers based on wayside and radio unit information. To ensure safe and reliable train operations, system boundaries and operational requirements must be well-defined, structured, and understood. Traditional systems engineering methods handle system requirements and design specifications but have limitations. There is a growing need to adopt modeling techniques to better understand command and control systems.

Structural health monitoring (SHM) of Aircraft composites is gaining prominence in the aero industry. Among the available SHM systems for Composites, usage of embedded fiber optic sensors for temperature, strain, pressure, acoustic emission, etc. is increasing due to their smaller size (~125 microns). This requires an understanding of the complex sensor architecture, type of sensing required, location of the sensor and ingress & egress of the optical fiber. This white paper describes a validated technique of optical fiber egress along with associated challenges for VARTM composite manufacturing technique. This technique could as well be applied for RTM and Prepreg manufacturing methodologies.
